Anybody see the article? (archive)

I just received this month's issue of Car and Driver and in it they compare the Aston Martin, the Z8 and the 360 Spider. What I LOVED to see was that the Z8 tied the 360 to 60 MPH, BEAT it to 100 MPH and brakes in a shorter distance.

It also mentioned a few things that they didn't like about the Z8. I'll be getting mine in about 10 days and wanted to get your opinion on something:

1) They say that the seats are uncomfortable and aren't good for long trips. Any comments from owners?

2) They noted that the wind noise with the top up is very loud and with the top down, it's like being in a wind tunnel even with the windscreen in place. Thoughts?

3) The center instrumentation bothered some of the drivers. Are you used to this setup now that you drive the car a lot?

Any info would be greatly appreciated!
